Madly Yours (Nora Reed) novel Chapter 375

By the time the black Maybach pulled into Cloudwater Estate, night had fully fallen.

Hearing the commotion outside, Olive O'Neil was the first to rush out and greet them.

But the moment she spotted the glaring red handprint on Nora's face, she completely lost it.

"Nora, what happened to your face?! Who hit you?!"

Olive planted her hands on her hips, practically breathing fire. "Tell me who it was! I'll go rip their damn head off right now!"

Nora didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She quickly waved her hands. "It's fine, really. It doesn't hurt anymore."

"Like hell it's fine! You don't hit a woman in the face! Which bastard did this? Give me a name, and I'll go bash their skull in tonight!"

Nora pressed her lips together, hesitating for a second. "My mom did it."

"..."

Olive blinked, entirely derailed. She stood there for a long moment before finally muttering, "Fuck."

"That... yeah, that's a tough one to fix..."

Seeing Olive look so utterly deflated made Nora smile. "Don't worry. Hudson already slapped her back for me."

Olive's head snapped toward Hudson, her eyes wide with reverence.

He slapped his own mother-in-law?!

"Boss, you're a legend!"

Hudson gave her a deadpan, expressionless look.

Olive immediately mimed zipping her lips shut and locking them.

Nora's smile widened, but as she glanced toward the living room, she was surprised to see Liam Harrison walking out.

"Dr. Harrison?" she asked, blinking. "What are you doing here?"

Liam pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose. "Mr. Lancaster mentioned you were injured, so he asked me to take a look."

"..."

Nora turned and shot Hudson a glare.

She had only been slapped! She wasn't horribly injured.

He was making a mountain out of a molehill, and now she felt ridiculous.
